Mocha and a Bassinet

Mocha came to visit on Thursday night 

and I had my scrap bin dumped out and strewn about.

She jumped right in and started digging! 

I think Mocha must have been a quilter in a previous life.

Also arriving Thursday night was my friend's family bassinet.

She is about to become a grand-aunt!

Haha that sounds so old.  Sorry Barbarita!

Anyway she was begging for help to make a liner.

"When is the shower?"

"Sunday."

Oh my!!

Luckily I had the perfect fabric in my stash and enough of it to do the job.

I added the hot pink pom poms for a little flair.

The mattress is about 30 years old,

so I covered it with a cotton blanket I just happened to have.

I must say I am very pleased with the results.  

I believe the new mama has sheets that will go with this scheme.

For those of you worrying that this is a 30 year old bassinet,

and it may not be safe . . . 

I have a feeling this is for photo opt purposes only.

Every baby in the family has slept in it.

Now let's just hope that ultra sound was right

and we are having a girl here.

Just incase, I better start looking at my blues and teals!

Here is a parting shot of Mocha in her new life jacket.

Apparently she is going kayaking soon.

Poor little darling.  Her mother dresses her funny . . . all the time.
